First Post on the New Blog

I like to write. Keep that in mind as my posts might be long. Hopefully you don't mind.

How did I get here?
That is a great question. I have never been overweight, never had any major health issues so how did I come to be interested in health?

At some point in my life, maybe high school, maybe during undergrad, I decided that I wanted to live to be 100. I thought, and still do, that seeing the changes in the world over the course of 100 yrs would be fascinating and it was something I wanted to do. I guess at the time my thought was that I'd make it to 100 on sheer will power. Now that I'm a bit older I know that is unrealistic, and further I have upgraded my goal from living to be 100, to living to be a good 100.

Partially I'm interested in health to help me reach that goal. But there were two other events that drew me in.
